    No Pacman is really hurting.
    I know, first world problems, but it's just so frakking annoying not being able to find one because only 5 or 6 came into the country

    GAME actually sent me something that I ordered which is a nice surprise, they got it at the 4th attempt. Friend from US sent over the Gold Mario. Just like buses, all arrive at once.

    I ordered a green Yarn Yoshi from Gamestop. Their price is surprisingly the cheapest I've seen yet. I'm trying not to be tempted by the other two colours, since I could buy a new game for the price of all three.

    Yeah I was in town by chance too and put five quid down on Jigglers and Greninja. Still out on the others, but now kinda thinking a green Yarn Yoshi too.

    This preordering business is so weird and new to me... anyone else feel dirty?

    Yeah I feel odd pre ordering things except consoles the day they come out the whole pre ordering games and things is weird as I prefer to just go in and buy of the shelf like I did with Skylanders when it first came out or Disney Infinity Marvel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 712 ✭✭✭LeeroyJ.


    Ordered the entire next wave, Jigleypuff, Grenninja, Paulatina, Ganondorf, Dark Pit, Zero suit Samus.


  • Registered Users Posts: 216 ✭✭FallSilently


    And Jigglers and Greninja preorders are already sold out on gamestop.ie. Bonkers.


  • Registered Users Posts: 482 ✭✭souleater3000


    They are on the website but not in-store. Bit odd no?

    What many monies?


  • Registered Users Posts: 216 ✭✭FallSilently


    Palutena went out of stock on Gamestop while I was trying to check out. Got the other three, and a green Yoshi. ZS Samus, Dark Pit and Inkling Boy are still available if anyone needs them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 482 ✭✭souleater3000


    Ganondorf isnt out until late june

    Yeah I know, I just menat you can't order it in the shops yet. When I was ordering Greninja etc they called the Ganondorf wave the September wave. I think they were maybe confusing it with the Dr.Mario wave and its american date. Since its later then ours?


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭johnf26


    God dammit, I was in there 1st thing this morning and they didnt have palutena , ganondorf , samus and dark pit on the system and was told from head office that they wouldnt be available for a few weeks and then they go up online...cu##s.
    Ill pop in-store tomorrow .

    They are not available in store. I pre ordered everything possible in store at 19.30 this evening and the next wave with ganondorf etc is not available. They said to try next week.


  • Registered Users Posts: 113 ✭✭eoghanie

  • Registered Users Posts: 216 ✭✭FallSilently


    Yes, got that Palutena I missed yesterday. Sorted now! Back to hunting for Ness, Robin and Lucina... >.<

    the yarn yoshis were gone in a shot!


  • Registered Users Posts: 113 ✭✭eoghanie


    God the relief from having all the next wave finally preordered!

    Desperately seeking Yarn Yoshi!


  • Registered Users Posts: 482 ✭✭souleater3000


    Got everything pre-ordered between Gamestop and Smyths (Only the game bundles in smyths) now to wait a month or more for Dr.Mario, Bowser Jr. and Olimar to be up for order, and for Nintendo to announce a bunch more most likely at E3

    Smyths still have the Yoshi's Woolly World bundle up for €70 and Gamestop are doing it for €60, think smyths price will fall before release or should I just cancel and go with Gamestop?

    you can still preorder him here http://www.shopto.net/video-games/wiiu/WIIUAM51-amiibo-yoshis-woolly-world-collection-green-yarn-yoshi
    but sterling to euro conversion aint great, i have him preordered but didnt pay yet as hoping to pick one up cheaper/locally. handy to have it as backup if all else fails.

    Which ones are those? Dr.Mario, Bowser Jr and Olimar were the last announced and they wern't in the system this morning.

    Oh sorry I forgot about those 3, agh there's too many! :pac: I preordered dark pit, ganondorf, palutena and zs samus today, they weren't on the system yesterday at the time I preordered yarn yoshis, splatoons and the other 2 Pokemon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 216 ✭✭FallSilently


    Don't ask why I'm up at this hour, but just spotted Ganondorf randomly back up on Gamestop if anyone still needs him.

    They also still have Inkling Boy, who doesn't seem to be in as much demand as the others. He never went down after yesterday's restock.

    Word's been coming in all day about the appearance of reprinted Villagers and Little Macs in Japan, my brother who lives over there can confirm it. He sent me a photo this morning of his local shop filled with both of them. I don't have a high-enough post count here to link it, but all of the villagers have the same alterations to their eyes, so that's not just an isolated change. The new villager's eyes are smaller and lower down.
